NATIONAL CAPITAL.
THE BLAIR EDUCATION BILL IN TER
SENATE.
Petitions Pouring In-Csrlisle and Thoebe-
AMud-slinging Campaign Against
mr.. Lamar.
lrrom our Regular corre.ponaent.l

WASHINGTON, ID. c., December co.
The Committee on Rules were not ready
to report this morning and the House
adjourned, ON the motion of Mr.. Mills,
to enable them to devote to day to the
further consideration and preparation of
the rules. Ii is probable that partial
report will be made tomorrow.
In the Senate. the day was chiefly
consumed in the discussion Of
the Blair education bill. Senator
Blair had taken the trouble to
have laid on every senator's desk a
copy of the report of the committee,
which Mr.. Riddleberger thought did in
justice to Virginia. Numerous petitions
for the passage of this bill have arrived
from all parts of the country. Its passage
by the Senate at an early date is alto
gether probable, and its friends in the
House say that they expect to have bet
ter luck with it this session than last.
They do not propose to allow the COM
mittce to pigeon-hole it this time.
Among the bills introduced in the
Senate to-day were two granting pen
sions of 81, 600 per year to the widows Of
General John A. Logan and General
Francis J. Blair. An attempt was made
to give them immediate consideration,
but Senator Berry, of Arkansas, OBJ
iected, and they had to take their place
on the calendar along with the pension
bills forprivate soldiers and their widows.
Senator Riddleberger has introduced
Senate Bill No. 93l, "to authorize the
construction Of eravelled road to the
Richmond National cemetery, near
Richmond, Va.," and it has been re-
ferred TO the Committee on Military Al
fairs.
The contest between Thoebe and Car
Isle will be merely formal Mr.. Thoebe
has made ont no case on his papers, and
the Republicans generally expect a
unanimous report in favor OF Mr.. Car
Isle.
Democrats here are very indignant
over the dispatch from this city pub
lished in the New York 7ribUne of to-
day in reference TO the charges OF aper-
sonal character against Mr.. Lamar init
mated therein. They do not think that
even Republican senators can he in
fuenced by such unworthy insInuatiOns,
but they say that the resort to such in
strumcntaiities shows the desperation TO
which the opposition is reduced, and
they expect this mud-sin9ing warfare
will be 40 NOE successful against Mr..
Lamar than it was against Dir. Cleye-
land.
The news Of Mr.. Barbour's election by
the separate houses OF the Legislature,
though fully expected, was received with
great satisfaction by his numerous
friends here.

PARIS, December 21.-Ihe DIXIE Of
Norfolk, who went TO Rome to convey
to the Pope the congratulations If
Queen Victoria on his jubilee, has LETT
this city, curtailing his visit, so the
GduioiS asserts. because OF the absolute
refusal of the Pope to further interfere
in the relations between the Irish clergy
and the people. Mgr. Rampolla, tue
papal secretary, the paper says, informed
the Duke that the Pope had already
used his influence with the clergy, but
could not ask priests to cease to be pa
triots without running the risk of causing
rebellion of a section OF the clergy and
the loss of the hold OF the Church upon
the people.
